“Uncharted”

“Uncharted” was the tagline for the new Onewheel release event that streamed live on Onewheel’s YouTube Channel at 10 am PST this morning.

Leading up to the event, there was a lot of comments downplaying Future Motions efforts

“I hope it’s not another mat” haha.

What a roller coaster ride! Seeing the comments in the live chat explode with negativity slamming the Pint X. Then to have Onewheel smash them BOOOOM! A+

Past efforts and social negativity aside, Future Motion Onewheel knocked it out of the park.

Onewheel GT

Look At This Beast!

The Onewheel GT is a monster! More range, more torque, concave Footpads front and back, treaded tire and 300% brighter LED headlights. This thing is the epitome of Onewheel.

Onewheel GT – The Specs That Everyone Is Talking About

Range – 20-32 Mile Range, that’s 32-52 kilometers mean that any range anxiety you may have had is now all but gone! I mean, if you can ride out a full charge in a GT, you should change your name to Superman!
Top Speed – 20 mph or 32 kph. Even if the hardware could enable a higher top speed. Legally the top speed is maxed out at 20 mph.
Recharge Time – 200 minutes with the standard charger. 90 with a GT Hypercharger.

Onewheel Pint X

Outside It Looks Very Similar. Inside There Are Big Changes! Extended range, higher top speed, packed into the same form factor pint riders have come to love!

Onewheel Pint X – The Specs That Everyone Is Talking About

Range – 12 to 18 mile range puts the new PintX on par with the XR in terms of range.
Top Speed – One of the most disappointing characteristics of the original pint was the lower top speed and aggressive pushback. The new 18 mph top speed leaves those problems behind.
Recharge Time – 225 minutes with the standard charger. 110 with a Pint Hypercharger.

Will It Float?

While there is no denying that the specs of the new Onewheel GT and Onewheel Pint X are impressive. No doubt the GT will be a monster through all terrain. Personally, I badly want a new GT. But alas, It’s another want vs need situation. Already owning a Pint, a Plus and an XR makes it hard to justify picking up one just yet. I need to sell one of my other Onewheels. Trust me when I say, this was an extremely difficult decision to make and I’m sure this will change once some real-world reviews come out 🤙
